Advancing the Pay of Their Men.

On number of roads in the Eastern and
Middle States, to-day, there is general advance
In the pay of their men, which indicates better
times with the railroad companies in those
States, as we'll as in the Western States. The
leader in the advance in wages was the Della
ware d Hudson Canal Company. The move
ment for the increase was inaugurated several
months ago on the Albany & Saratoga division
and rapidly extended to all other divisions,
which promptly fell in with the proposition. The
matter was kept profound secret until the
plans OF the men were perfected and agreed
upon by the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers, the iremen and the brakemen A COM
mittee was then appointed to wait on General
Manager Horace G. Young, and he agreed to lay
the matter before the company at the very first
opportunity.
The company gave the proposition respectful
consideration and agreed to make the advance.
This decision was arrived at some time ago, but
1t was thought best not to make any announce
ment OF 1t until after the termination of the
freight-handiers strike. In addition to the ad
vance in pay considerable modification has
been made in the working hours. Hereafter
twelve hours. or hundred miles day, will con-
stitute days work for all except the passenger
tranmen, and all over that will be paid in pro-
portion.

From that time Mother Bckerdyke always

A DREADFUL SCENE.
An Internal Machine Explodes in a The
atre.

atre.
SAN FRANCISCO, February 10.-A dra-
matte and sensational episode occurred
at the Grand Opera House last night
Adelina Patti was giving her last concert
of the season, which was announced also
as her last appearance in this city. The
incident will tend to make PATHS fare
well memorable. At 1920 after Patti
had twice appeared in front Of the cur
tain in response to recalls at the conclu-
sion of an aria from LA Trayiata,"
and lust as she had retired again to
the wings, tremendous explosion
was clearly heard above the
vociferous applause, and cloud Of smoke
was seen to rise over the railing OF the
top gallery. Instantly every lorgnette
in the house was focused on that portion
of the house where the exciting scene
was transpiring, and panic was immin-
ent People in the gallery were rushing
about seeking the quickest means OF exit,
and it was only through the self-pOsses-
sion of the newspaper men present in the
boxes, coupled with that of the diva, that
a stampede of the entire audience for the
doors was prevented. The newspaper
men were in the stage box and quickly
perceived that no serious result had oc-
Cured, and that the danger was over.
They communicated by mods and motions
with Nine. Patti, who was still in the
flies waiting to come before the curtain.
She comprehended the situation and
came forward quickly. and, giving the
cue to Arditi, began singing Home,
Sweet Home"
This had a calming effect on the audi
ence, and though many left to ascertain
the cause and effect of the unexpected
punctuation to the performance, the con-
cert was carried on to its conclusion AS
soon as the location of the trouble could
be learned a policeman rushed to the
scene and found a man with badly
burned face and hands moaning with
agony, and the remains of an Internal
machine about him. He was placed un-
der arrest and conveyed to Irving Hos
pital.

REVIEW.

New YORK. February 10-The tone OF all
foreign markets was decidedly firmer this
morning, and prices here responded TO Their
advance Throughout the early part OF the
day prices were very firm, but becoming dull,
the room traders, as usual, raided them; and
the fact that to-day has been settlement day
in London withdrew any support, helped
them to depress values, but not to any APP
precable extent, as after the rapid advance
of the past few days all conservative people
have EXPECTED and would welcome some re-
action, as being liable to impart some stabll-
itv to the market and render it more safe;
nuring the last half hour the tone improved
again. and the close was irregular, but not
weak The bank of England return is again
a very good one and shows aconsiderable IN
crease in the revenue.
This indicates an easy money market
there. Money here ruled at to . per cent.
